On which chart did Taylor Swift’s “August” eventually peak at number 46?

Taylor Swift’s “August” eventually peaked at number 46 on the Billboard Global 200.

The Billboard Global 200 ranks songs using streaming and sales data from more than 200 territories worldwide. “August” reached that number 46 peak in 2023, several years after its original release on Folklore.

That delayed achievement reflects the song’s unusual seasonal pattern. Its streams rise around August, when listeners and social-media users return to its late-summer imagery. The annual attention helped the track gain renewed visibility beyond its original album cycle.

The chart name is important because “Billboard 200” refers to albums, while the Global 200 is a worldwide songs chart. The song also had separate peaks on the US Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Rock & Alternative Songs charts, so the number 46 should not be assigned to those rankings.
